AISubs v3.5
Konjiki, konjiki, konkonjiki
It was sold by Yoshiwara's Hojuro and Iwasharu
The song "shiranu, shiranu" is a lie
This body sold for money
Look forward to it
This way, this way, this way
Tears of friendship that no one knows about
In the middle of the night, cheerfully
Laughing and having fun
This body sold for money
Look forward to it
In the middle of the night, cheerfully
This way, this way, this way
Teacher! Teacher Kirino!
I'm Iwasaki from "Azuma Shimbun"!
I was able to make an emergency request to the editor- in-chief of "Azuma Shimbun" and came to deliver lunch instead!
Teacher! Teacher Kirino!
She's not answering...
It stinks!
What's this? It doesn't even make sense.
Is this the novel that became a sensation in Hanakanzashi or Kirino Ichiro's manuscript?
Mr. Kataoka, how long are you going to take care of this finished author?
This smell!
You scared me!
This smell!
Professor, you're here!
That's my lunch!
Professor?
What? What? What?
What are you doing, professor?
Oh, I opened someone's letter on my own.
It stinks!
Who wrote this?
What?
Who wrote this?
Why are you asking me that?
Who?
It's a woman!
Which woman?
Yoshiwara's woman!
Yoshiwara...
Yoshiwara has a woman that he likes.
She gave me this letter.
Akai...
Yoshiwara...
Akai Fumi...
Hey, hey, hey!
Geez!
I haven't even read it yet, and it stinks like this!
Dear Mr. Kataoka,
I'm tired of waiting and my heart is rusting.
If this body is rusting, I will sacrifice my life for darkness.
What is this?
This is...
No, no, no, no, no, no, no, no!
Where are you going?
Move, please!
Where are you going?
I'm in a hurry!
Where are you going?
I'm heading to where this letter says!
I'm coming, too!
What are you doing here?
I'm coming, too!
It's a woman's life we're risking!
Take me with you!
Ah, I guess I have no choice!
Wait for me, Kyoko!
Go!
(music)
(panting)
Why do I have to carry this old man and run?
Hurry up!
Shut up! I know!
(laughter)
It's finally off!
Later! Wait for me, Kyoko!
(music)
Huh?
Hey!
Who's there?
It's me, Kirino!
Huh? Kirino-sensei? You're kidding!
Hurry up!
I know!
Kyoko! Stop it! Kyoko!
Iwasaki!
Kyoko! Why do you want me to die?
Die?
Because you just pointed a pair of scissors at me!
No, it was a kiss!
A kiss?
We were kissing and playing!
Look! A cherry!
Isn't it good?
Then, why did you give me this?
Look! A piece of cloth!
A piece of cloth?
When I used to write letters to my loved ones,
I used to dye the top of my hair with my own cloth like this!
Oh, my!
My beloved wife!
I'm tired of waiting!
My heart is rusting!
If this body is rusting,
I will sacrifice my life and throw it into the darkness
and become a scattering cherry!
If the next day does not come,
I will scatter without your knowledge!
Wow, you're a great bookseller. You're good at writing.
Ahaha! You were flustered when you read this, weren't you?
Bookseller?
Yes.
Does that mean you didn't write it?
I just read it for the first time.
What's that supposed to mean?!
Because you never let me say it! That's why I asked you to do it.
You're in a bad mood. Which bookseller is it?
It's difficult. It's a book called "Rashomon Gasshi".
"Rashomon Gasshi"?
From Omon, on the far left, there was an ohaguro dobu that surrounded Yoshiwara so that he wouldn't be able to escape until he was burned by a target earthquake.
Yes.
It's exactly like that dobu.
In Yoshiwara, women who had gotten sick or had changed their minds were attracting men and doing business.
In Showa, dobus became popular, but it's kind of creepy.
But I told you to be brave!
Sorry.
When we got there, we heard someone writing in a dim city.
When we looked away, we saw an old woman floating up.
She was covered in ragged cloth and couldn't see.
It's weird for a bookseller to not be able to see.
I thought so, too!
Then, all of a sudden, she raised her head and said...
Do you want a cup of love?
She looked me in the eye and said, "Yes!"
Then I must read your mind.
She called me.
Come.
Come over here.
"Come over here." "Come over here." "Come over here."
As I was getting closer and closer, my grandmother suddenly…
Ah!
How cute!
Hey!
I did the same thing!
You said you were scared, didn't you? You said you were scared!
And then, looking at your feelings…
I wished for you, my love, with all my heart.
And then you said you understood my love and wrote me a letter.
I hope you send it to your beloved.
Make sure you come and see me.
I was lonely.
I thought you hated me.
Idiot! Of course I don't hate you!
I'm happy.
Rashomongastara.
Huh?
H-h-he's always been here?!
I'm borrowing this letter!
I love you!
Hey you! Was there a man there?!
There was! An old man!
An old man?!
I love you!
It's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun, it's fun
[Music]
Great bookseller!
Oh, are you a visitor?
Are you asking for "The Scent of Love"?
This letter is from you!
[Music]
By the way, is there a woman you love?
No, there isn't.
That's good to know.
Oh, you're a writer too!
Why?
I can smell love.
Now, I must read your mind.
There is no love like love.
I'm not asking you for love!
Then what do you want?
Words?
Have you lost words you wrote?
It seems so.
Come here.
This way.
Come here.
This way.
Come here.
Bushi was lost.
Lost?
He lost his words and his eyes.
He lost his heart and was lost.
I must remember.
Remember what?
I must write about my master.
About what?
About my master's story.
Red sea.
Let me help you.
I have nothing more to say.
Go ahead.
I...
Cherry blossoms...
This scent...
And then...
Cherry blossoms' scent...
I...
And then...
I...
Cherry blossoms' scent...
I...
And then...
I...
And then...
A dream that doesn't exist
The dream that won't disappear
The dream that can't be forgotten
The dream that won't disappear
The dream that can't be forgotten
It's been a long time, but I finally love you
Hey, hey, hey, hey
Damn it! We're in trouble!
Sorry, but we can't do anything about it!
Thank goodness!
Hey, you guys! Over here!
Huh? Kataoka?
Hurry up and come here!
Kataoka, why are you doing that?
Huh? This is it! This is what I've been doing!
What are you doing?
Playing chess!
You're really good at it!
You're too weak!
That's where you're going to get caught!
Most of the time, it's just men who do it all by themselves!
They just get into it and don't even read the rules!
Oh, no, no, no!
The Meiji era is over 40 years old, and it's just yamate!
Age doesn't matter!
It does!
In the Edo period, there were only noble men!
In the Edo period? How old were you?
Over 60 years old.
What in the world?!
Hey! Don't just stand there! Get up!
Oh, I'm sorry! I bumped into you!
Oh, you're so cute!
Come on, get up here!
Come on, come on!
Excuse me!
Come on, sit here!
Come on, come on!
This is the author of today's article, Kirino Ichiro!
Oh, my! He's a writer?!
This is Mori-san of "Azuba Shimbun" and the protagonist of "Oiran Dochi" today,
Saijo-san of "Kabidon" and "Shirokuya"!
No, no! The protagonist is Oga Oiran!
So, teacher...
No, I'm not a teacher yet!
Hurry up and take it!
There's no way in which "Shirokuya" will follow you directly!
Don't exaggerate like that!
Come on!
Yes, thank you!
Oiran Dochi
Oh! Excellent!
But why are you late today?
Because of you, I was caught off guard.
I'm sorry, I got lost.
Lost? I told you it was right from the gate.
The cherry blossoms...
What about the cherry blossoms?
The cherry blossoms were so beautiful and smelled so good that I got lost in a strange place before I could pick them up.
You got lost in the scent, didn't you, Yoshiwara's cherry blossoms?
I'm sure you remember them.
Are you Yoshiwara of spring for the first time?
No matter what it is, I'm Yoshiwara for the first time today.
I live near you, but I'm not interested in playing with you.
Oh, what a waste.
Mr. Oori, this is...
My suggestion.
But do you know Yoshiwara?
And you're very young.
Today's "Oiran Dochi" is a one-off for me, Oga Oiran.
I think it will be a special record for those with pure eyes who don't know Yoshiwara.
We'll be left with an extra red.
Don't worry.
I'm not worried at all.
But this is a recommendation from one of the talented editors.
But this is unnecessary.
It's just that it's in danger of being sold.
I see.
The teacher I'm teaching may be short-sighted, but he likes Yoshiwara.
In fact, he was in trouble because he didn't have a handkerchief.
Then I remembered.
When I was a literary scholar in the past,
there were young people who wrote seriously enough to make you want to shit.
My father died early and I studied hard, right?
Yes.
When I contacted Yoshiwara, it was a big hit.
Speaking of seriousness, is there a different way of writing than Mr. Toyama's handkerchief?
I'm not good at that.
His is like Mr. Natsume's Sanshirou.
If that Sanshirou were a passionate writer, it would be like that.
Good or bad, is it pure wood?
I think it's perfect for this project.
What do you think?
Thank you very much.
Yes! It's decided!
Good, good!
Speaking of futons, everyone is waking up to "watakushi" literature these days.
"Watakushi" literature?
It's about writing yourself honestly and openly.
It's a useful method for writers who are drunk or drunk.
Have you read "futon"?
Yes.
What do you think of it?
Well...
I think writing yourself honestly and openly is just masturbation.
Hey!
What do you mean "masturbation"?
This is it.
Like this.
Oh, no, professor!
Ouch!
I told you because you asked me!
Futons are too obvious for middle-aged men.
If you want to draw a slum, you have to integrate individuals and society.
Literature should not only influence readers but also society.
For example...
Like "Zora no Nana".
"Zo's Pee"?
"Zo's Pee" by Masuga Shon?
I like it!
"Zora" is a French naturalist writer.
"Nana" is a novel he wrote.
"Nana" is the name of a rich man.
Do you know about it?
It's a story about a rich man named "Nana" who eats up and destroys middle-aged men.
In the end, he dies from a bite or something.
Oh, that's scary.
Yoshihara has that story, too.
But professor Kirino...
"Zora" is different from "Zora" by Dostoevsky.
"Zora" is too obvious for middle-aged men.
It's not naturalistic, it's obscene.
I don't know about France, but I don't know about Japan.
Isn't it because you don't know about the bottom?
Hey!
Professor Kirino, do you know about the top?
It's true, I went and…
Idiot! If you have time to talk nonsense, you should go to a book store and buy some paper.
He only uses bad paper.
Oh, that's right.
That bad paper doesn't have anything to do with Mori-san's fate.
I bought it desperately. It's a short story. Please read it.
Hey, put it away!
But…
It's not something you can say in a drinking party.
Oh, it's about time.
Hey, what?
It's really been a while. I'm so happy.
Are you that happy?
Yes.
Why?
Why? If I had done the right thing, I would have won a prestigious civilization award.
I'm rich and poor, but I've already been drunk ten times and made a fool of myself.
Does it cost money to travel to Ireland?
It's true. I don't know anything about it.
That's why you were chosen.
It costs a lot of things, but especially my staff.
Staff?
You just pick up a customer, but you take him or her to a lot of places.
If you're not well-equipped, it's a shame for you and me.
But because of the drunkenness of people, the number of customers who can afford to travel to Ireland has decreased and disappeared naturally.
Now, you pick up a man who can do it.
If you don't have a secret plan, you can go directly.
I'm like you.
You're the trend these days.
I'm in charge of three times.
Houjirou and I have two or three more jobs.
Three times?
The first one is for introduction.
You just look at me.
The second one is for introduction.
Hey!
Yes!
I can talk a little.
The third one is for acquaintance.
If you say you like me here, I'll let you in.
Do you want me to decide?
Yes, if you don't like me, you can say you don't like me.
You made me do a lot of things, and you said you didn't like me.
I can't stand it.
There wasn't such a bad guy in the past.
It's too early.
I'm lonely.
A lot of things have disappeared.
My dreams were packed in Ireland.
I don't have a dream of women selling cars and trying to make ends meet.
Houjirou is the best farmer in Ireland.
He works harder than anyone else.
He works as hard as he can.
Yes, that's it!
I'm sorry I made you wait so long.
No, it was a good story.
You're so kind.
Sir, I think he'll laugh.
Will he?
I'm sure of it. He laughs every day of the day.
If he laughs, will he be happy tomorrow?
Of course!
Hey, watch my face carefully.
What do you mean by "if he laughs, will he be happy tomorrow"?
I don't laugh.
You don't laugh?
No, I might say I can't laugh.
No matter how hard I try, no matter how much I care for her,
even after having fun, she doesn't even smile.
She's a beautiful woman, but at first, it seemed like you were the bad guy.
Why can't he laugh?
I don't know. He's always nodding his head, "what's wrong with you?"
But as time went on, the men's competitive spirit caught fire.
Everyone tried to find out who could make him laugh the most,
and as a result, Oga proudly climbed up to Hojiro's kitchen.
Only you two can call me Oga now.
No, I'm out of luck today, too.
What?
Oga is decided to be the best.
Hey, that's still...
Isn't it good?
Are you saying that for yourself?
Ah!
He's a noisy guy who cries and yells all the time.
Ah, my ears hurt.
I can't help it even if I cry.
I'm not saying it for myself.
I'm so happy today.
I won't wave goodbye and leave Omo.
I won't let Yoshihara's dream come true.
I can't...
It's starting to sound like a different play now.
You're happy, aren't you?
I'm really happy, Mr. Ogaoyran.
Well, well, well!
Please come in!
Everyone's happy, everyone's happy.
Oh, what a step forward, Mr. President.
Only you, Mr. President, can make such a great progress.
Congratulations! Congratulations!
What a magnificent step forward, Mr. President.
Congratulations! Congratulations!
Everyone's happy, everyone's happy.
Only you, Mr. President, can make such a great progress.
Oh, this is amazing!
Oh, what a magnificent step forward, Mr. President.
Oh, what a step forward, Mr. President, to make such a great progress in such a sunny day like this!
Thank you very much.
It's magnificent, Oga! It's really beautiful!
Oga, smile! Smile!
Why? Why don't you smile? You must be a happy man who fulfilled Yoshiwara's dream.
It's strange that happy people can't smile. Stop it!
You've done so much for us, why? What do you want?
You should smile for yourself. You have to smile!
What have you done, you bastards!
You should laugh for yourself. You have to laugh!
Were you surprised to find a room like this in a gallery?
This is quite something, isn't it?
A great painting is a family heirloom, and it is a must-have for a painter.
Without a painting, you cannot live, Your Majesty. I have also suffered greatly.
How is my performance?
There is nothing for you to worry about. I just did my best.
Thank goodness. Where are Mr. Mori and Mr. Kataoka?
They have gone home.
Then I will go with you.
No, you should not go out yet.
I have settled this matter, but I have not settled any other disputes.
While I am on my deathbed, you should stay here for your own sake.
Please read this book.
Why did you save me?
Because you are my benefactor.
Benefactor?
You have hidden my shame.
If you had not caused a ruckus,
I would not have been able to smile in front of so many spectators.
I would have been ashamed of myself.
If that were the case, my deathbed sign would have been scratched.
This reward is not expensive.
Thank you.
No, I...
But why did you do it today?
The words you said should not be unusual for me.
But why?
If you are tired of reading, please call the maid.
I will make sure you enjoy it.
Yes.
Why did you do it?
It's seven in the sky!
Even the seven phenomena!
Oh, I'm sorry!
These eyes... These eyes are...
I'm sorry.
"C'est l'hube, c'est l'original", um... "Estelle, retourne à l'libre"!
"We", "Ilson", "C'est l'hube, l'libre"...
You know French?!
And you?
I only know a little.
Don't tell me you...
Nana was born in French?!
Yes.
That's amazing!
I only read what was translated, and it's the first time I've seen this phenomenon!
But this is difficult!
My knowledge of French is very...
So, what did you think of it?
What I thought of it...
From your position, what do you think of Nana as a wife?!
In my position, I know how you feel.
No, that's not what I mean.
What I know is the feeling of someone who has been destroyed.
The ignorance of someone who thinks their happiness is natural.
How much did Saijo-sama ask of you?
Huh?
Did you ask me to laugh or not?
I didn't ask you.
Are you lying?
I'm not lying!
Then why?!
Why did you stop me from doing anything?!
Why didn't you talk to me?
That's...
Talk to your wife and choose a good one.
I'm not a customer! I'm not that kind of customer!
This is a gallery. A place where men enjoy themselves.
Then, please excuse me.
Can we talk a little more?!
My name is Kirino.
In order to write about your whereabouts, I went through Yoshiwara for the first time.
I'm just a writer.
For the first time...
Yes.
If I hadn't caused that commotion, I wouldn't have come to this room and met you!
I am now Saijo-sama's servant.
Servant... what do you mean?
I have been bought off.
Saijo-sama took care of me.
For a while, he was kind enough not to take other customers.
Kind?
It's rude of you to buy me off like that!
I'm not that kind of person!
Yoshiwara's friendship is for sale!
Even for a minute or a second, you can get away with it!
Then, with this...
With this, please give me some of your time!
This is an important manuscript I just wrote yesterday!
It's a large sum of money for me!
Yes.
I'd like you to critique it.
Critique it?
I'm sure you have something to say about it.
You've read a lot of books and even "Zora" has been read.
If you can't say anything about it, I don't mind if you don't like it.
Why do you say that?
People say I'm too serious about my work.
But I didn't like it when "Zora" and "Nana" met and were impressed by it.
I didn't use any elaborate words.
In my natural expression, I burned out the rotten parts of human bones.
I wrote this manuscript and challenged myself to do the same!
And I did it!
Bye!
Is this about your father?
Yes, I wrote about my father for the first time.
Is that so?
Please say whatever you feel.
I think you're overdoing it.
Overdoing it?
You're exaggerating.
It is said that Zola experimented with a method of accurately describing
whatever happened in front of him, whether it be evil or miserable.
He is very popular in France, but I think he is a writer who is
about as far away from the Japanese sense of ethics as possible.
I know you're against it, but his method doesn't fit your Japanese work.
It is normal for a father who wants to be a novelist to lose his way halfway.
But if you add a writer's personality to it, you can become someone who has no inferiority complex.
For example, "Sanshiro" by Natsume Soseki and "Moriougai" by Moriougai, which started this spring, are good examples.
Have you read them?
No, I haven't read them yet.
Please tell me if you have read them.
Both of them are young people who have just come out of the countryside.
It is normal for them to interact with each other.
But if you ask these two writers, you will see and be seen.
It is a completely different story just by looking at it from a simple point of view.
The important thing is not the method but individuality, isn't it?
I don't have individuality!
Your father's abuse is too exaggerated and it seems like you're taking away your individuality.
But in reality, for me, my father was really abusive!
He wanted to draw and wanted to draw and struggled and tried to bite the brush while spitting blood!
I felt disgust as a child at my mother's aggressive behavior.
As a middle school teacher in the countryside,
a man who doesn't even have a name in the world tries so hard to laugh at me.
How miserable I am!
And now, I'm really disgusted with my stupidity for walking down the same path as my father!
If only you could write those feelings as they are...
Huh?
The words written here and the words you just said are more real
and I don't feel any unreasonable exaggeration.
How about we start from the end?
The end?
I'm the one who spilt blood on that miserable dead man and wiped away my father's body covered in bloodstains!
Should we start from here?
But your father's story doesn't end there!
What I want to know is what happens next!
What happens next?
Why did a boy who thought his father was evil and wiped away his father's body covered in bloodstains
start walking down the same path as his father?
I want to know about him.
Then let it be my story.
Let your story be your writing!
This is bad. I can't even get a word out of it.
Huh?
Your big sister's face!
Oh, no! My aunt is in the third world war!
Komari, I'll tell her that the badge is cute.
Come on, let's go.
OK.
Don't go. You should be on this side.
I want to talk to you more. I want to know your opinion.
Please forget everything.
Everything?
Everything we've been through, everything we've read, everything we've criticized.
If you say you won't forget...
Yoshifara's dream will disappear overnight.
There are things that don't disappear!
Your eyes... those eyes...
Hey, you!
Mr. Kataoka?
Hey, Mr. Kataoka!
[Konchiwa, konchiwa, konkon chiki]
[Urarete kita no wa Yoshiwara no]
[Ojuro, tooi wassharu]
[Shiranu, shiranu, toiu uta wa uso ja]
[Kane de urareta kono mi ga]
[Sadame no wata]
The fate of love is..
Well, then, miss, see you later!
See you later, Kinsei.
I'll ask Saijo-sama about this later.
Okay!
Let's go again?
Sis!
What?
Even if you don't force yourself to do it, I won't let you do it.
That's a lie! I'm not bored!
Chori-chan!
I'm just going to eat a dango!
That will help you. Go ahead and eat it.
Mmm!
Let's go!
But...
Aoi-chan! Come on!
Come on!
Aoi-neesan, you love Saijou-sama, don't you?
Mari-chan!
Don't stop!
Okay!
Hey!
Is it really night already in Canada?
Yes.
It looks like it will get busy again when the show ends.
What's up with you?
Huh?
What is it?
Kirino Ichiro, a young writer who fell in love with a beautiful girl.
Oh, she's still young.
Yes.
That young writer was in love with a beautiful girl.
But when he found out that they were having an affair,
he stood in front of the girl and laughed at her.
Oh, so this is Tenmazu!
He's a liar!
He said that it was his first time having an affair.
Is that so?
I heard it from Zurematsu-neesan.
It's true that there will be more customers who will laugh at you.
Even if you say you forgot how to laugh, no one will understand you.
Men like to joke.
But she did. She looked at you and laughed in your room.
Komari, you've got it all wrong.
All wrong?
What do you mean?
Right, Komari, I'll read you a book.
Really?
I'll read you anything.
Great!
Don't go to the book room. I'll be right there.
Ah!
Yohei!
I'm not asking you anything.
Let me give you this cherry blossom perfume for the end.
Are you all right?
Ah, I'm sorry.
No, no, I just smelled the scent of cherry blossoms.
But, well, it's rare for a perfume to have such a strong smell.
Here you are.
You met Yohei for the first time, didn't you?
Yes.
Thanks to Yohei, my heart didn't break and I was able to move on.
He said that there is a kind-hearted and kind- hearted person in his car and even in his village.
Don't mention it.
I'm sorry to say this, but could you do me a favor?
What is it?
I can't forgive this man.
He's trying to make me look good and make me famous.
So, I want you to tell me that I'm angry.
If you go to the newspaper office, they'll tell you where I live.
Even if you want to go, I won't go.
Hey!
What is it?
Tell me and what will you do?
Nothing.
I won't do anything!
Will you tell me in secret?
Yes.
Please.
Yes.
This is bad.
How do you do, Mr. Kirino?
Mr. Kataoka.
How do you do?
What's this?
It's a love letter for you from the newspaper.
It's from Fuan Richard.
It's great, Mori-san.
Thanks to you, the newspaper is selling well.
So, have you written the introduction of Mr. Kirino?
For now...
Oh, show me. I'll post it tomorrow.
Hey, hey, hey.
What's this?
All I have today is my mother's support.
No, no!
Don't write about your gratitude for your family.
Write about your character.
Character?
If it's difficult, it can be your woman's hobby.
That's what they want to know.
I'll make Fuan feel better.
One day, she'll buy your book.
Kirino Ichiro.
Beautiful young writer who fell in love with me, Hiren.
We're like brothers.
But, this is funny.
With your well-taken picture,
this shadow is mysterious and irresistible.
That's a fake.
Mr. Kataoka made it.
Fake or not, it doesn't matter.
Mr. Ohashi of the white newspaper said...
that a picture is the first thing people are interested in.
Mr. Ohashi raised Ms. Higuchi and Ms. Jio.
Yes. Compared to that picture, the literature club sold well.
Ms. Higuchi died at a time like this.
But, Mr. Ohashi's reputation as an editor rose.
I'm aiming for that person.
Actually, I'm trying to get you to write a newspaper series.
I'm trying to get Mr. Mori to do it.
Series?
Mr. Mori said it's too early.
But, I think now is the chance.
After all, you're popular now.
So, if you're good at it, you'll catch up later.
Um, that's...
I'll rewrite it for you girls to drool over.
This is my specialty.
You should try writing a series.
At that time, Sarah realized that she would no longer be used as a shadow like she had been before, and that there had been a major change in her fate.
The reason for this is...
Mr. Oger.
Mr. Amanushi, good morning. You're back.
Are you working again?
It's about a car boy's dream.
A rich man saving you, right?
What about Aoi and Midori?
What about Dachin? Have they eaten anything?
I'm sorry for everything.
You've done it.
You too, Mr. Mori.
It is said that this was set up to sell the novelist Kirino.
I wonder if it was a loss to hide it.
You're so kind, sir.
But you looked surprised when you saw that man.
And you did it all of a sudden.
I've been thinking about why.
I laughed.
Komari, who laughed?
Don't go into the room. I need to talk to the chief.
No, you can't go in...
Komari, don't go!
He's a neurologist.
Don't tell me you...
Olga! Did you laugh?
No, laugh and get down.
Look me in the eye and you'll know.
Hey!
Who did you laugh at?
It was Komari's dream.
Tell me the truth!
It was a dream! She was asleep in her book!
Why are you crying?
No... This is...
Whose tears are those?
No...
Won't you say it?!
Busshi!
Won't you say it?!
I won't forgive you!
Olga! Wait!
Olga!
No...
You didn't know about that newspaper, did you?
No.
I see.
That's all for me.
Thank you very much.
But you know...
You shouldn't write lies about newspapers.
Are you all right?
You seem to be a little hot.
I'm fine.
Do you want some water?
No, I'm fine.
I'll just have some eggs and go to bed.
That's all for me.
Um... I have a question.
What is it?
How much does it cost to meet Olga in Yoshiwara?
I only heard that it costs money just to talk to her.
Olga Orlan is...
Kojuro's assistant.
I know that.
She has a special name.
And that newspaper made her popular again.
Fifty yen...
No...
It could be more than that.
No way...
She's very rich.
Then why don't you call her here?
What?
No...
Do you really know Yoshiwara?
Can you not?
Just a little...
For me to go outside of Yoshiwara...
I need skills.
But I can't go unless I have skills.
The skilled side is more afraid of being chased than anything else.
They can only go out of the gate whether they're accepted or not, or whether they die.
That's why there's a lot of fire, Yoshihara.
If you start a fire, you'll get caught in the fire and be chased away.
I heard Mr. Oga was accepted by Ms. Saijo.
It's a rumor, though.
No, Ms. Saijo herself has accepted him.
Ms. Saijo?
Yes.
Is that so? That's great! She'll take good care of me.
So you'll see her?
What?
Because you can go out of the gate.
No, I can't do that.
Why not?
I'll become Ms. Saijo's. I can't disturb her happiness.
Will she really be happy?
Ms. Saijo thinks highly of me.
I'm asking about Ms. Oga's feelings.
Does Ms. Saijo think Ms. Oga will be happy if she becomes Ms. Saijo's?
Of course she does!
Then will you give this to Ms. Oga?
What is it?
I wrote it for you, Mr. Oga.
No! You can't give it to your girlfriend!
It's a novel!
A novel?
It's a story I wrote only for her!
Please!
Excuse me, what's wrong with you?
The Queen is in a bad mood and is on her way home.
I've never seen such a Queen!
The Queen has declared me as her official wife.
But what about your heart?
I've given it to someone else and bought it in the village.
Congratulations, Queen! You're so happy!
Shut up! And what about your job?
Nothing.
But the Queen is angry!
I knew it! I knew it was Houjirou's job!
Thank you for waiting for my answer!
You're right!
What's going on?
The Minister, who has been wanted for a long time,
is waiting for you to finish your job.
How is my job?
I'll tell you about my job.
Can you work until the end of the year?
I won't work until the end of the year.
If you have customers, you can work for half a year.
Half a year?
Well, you can take your time and think about it.
But I can't take a break in this cherry blossom season.
If I can't get customers and I can't pay off my debt,
I'll write love letters or cut my nails and send them to you.
Or I'll send you the finger of a citizen I bought from a merchant.
I know it's a big deal, but...
Hey, you should learn from your sister, too!
Yes!
I'm so happy for you!
I don't want to get used to it.
Aoi-chan, what are you...
Because I don't know!
How kind-hearted you are!
Aoi-chan!
To be desired as a real wife...
This happiness doesn't exist!
I live with painful thoughts...
Even though I'm rejected!
Why don't you give me a good answer?!
It's for the sake of the shop and...
No matter what happens, I'll still be your wife!
Aoi-chan, don't do it!
The shop has dignity.
Does that even exist?!
I'm the one who's been cut down and forced to work!
Stop it!
If you hate me...
Then send me away!
Aoi-chan...
President!
You can't say that!
Why?
You know the rules of the car, don't you?
You can't say things like "stealing someone's friend is a crime" or "don't say anything like that"!
Do you understand?
Aoi-chan!
Please calm her down and tell her to calm down.
Yes!
I'm in trouble. What should I do?
Don't be mad at me.
Why?
Because you said bad things about me.
I'm not mad at you.
I'm glad.
You can go back to your room now.
Yes!
It's me.
How did it go?
Good.
Take this.
But if you write a reply to this, who will get the badge?
A reply? It's me!
If you're not someone who can keep a secret that you can't give to someone you hate, your body will be destroyed.
I know you know that.
But if you really want to write one...
You want me to become a gambler?
Yes.
No matter what?
No matter what!
Your manuscript... I've read it over and over again.
Because I'm so happy that you wrote a story just for me.
I thought this manuscript was very good.
I was surprised at your courage.
You didn't fear it and revealed everything.
And you say it's my turn next.
You don't want to know about me, do you?
Do you want me to know about you?
I've made up my mind.
I'll tell you only what I've kept secret and what I must keep secret from now on.
But if you don't believe you can keep a secret...
Before you read my manuscript, please tear it up and throw it away.
I trust you as much as you read it and tear it up and throw it away.
And...
Wait!
"Fingertips Perfect"...
"If you lie, I'll eat your needle and thread"...
"Fingertips Perfect"...
"If you lie, I'll eat your needle and thread"...
Ready... Set... Go!
My heart is beating fast
The sky is clear and blue
Like a fairy tale
My heart is beating fast
(♪ BGM "Sakura" ♪)
Come here, Sakura! My little sister, Sakura!
My little sister…
I can't see you, Sakura!
Cherry blossom boys!
It would be troublesome if you were able to see us…
Sisters!
Are you sure you look good in this year's sakura?
Do we look good?
As you can see our waists are thin.
Happy new year!
So it's candies and flowers. Who is going to smell?
The flowers.
We will.
We hardly care.
So they can't go up the
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Here we go!
We got it!
Oh my!
You're such a bad boy!
Bad boy? Are you still white?
Are you still blue?
Shut up!
So cute!
I'll make you taste it!
Me too, me too!
Here we go!
Okay!
So cute!
You're going to eat my head!
We got a dango stand at the stationery store, how about you guys?
Thank you very much!
Here you go!
Thank you!
Here you go!
Thank you!
Oh!
Hey, hey, hey, hey!
Did Mr. Hojuro have a daughter who went to elementary school?
She's not my daughter, she's an accountant's daughter.
Are you asking an accountant to help you?
I can at least carry tea for you.
But you can't do that.
You can't treat a gentleman's daughter like that.
A gentleman's daughter!
What?!
Mr. Masako!
Even if you don't work, you get eaten and sold.
What is a gentleman? A great, great person.
A person from a different world than us.
A lady who lives in France, too.
A lady like that in Ereast! How many times have you done it?
Sir, I have no questions.
Do you smoke?
Smoke?
I've been crying about losing money because I was deceived and robbed while managing my assets.
Why? Are you in debt?
Sir, I'm going, too. I'll be sold.
That's not true! My father is a great man.
He will definitely return your money.
Well, if you say so.
If you show up, I'll say you're cute.
Don't come!
Hey, you guys! Stop it!
My father will come for you! He will definitely come for you!
Hey, you guys! Stop it!
Why me?
You old woman can't catch up!
Try running away outside the gate! You'll get caught!
What? Even you, lady?
I'm a debt collector!
But my father will definitely come for you!
Shut up!
Sir!
Hey, you guys! Get up!
Hurry up and clean up!
Hey, you guys!
Wait! Calm down!
I don't want to be with you anymore! I'm going home!
But dad told you to stay here, didn't he?
He did! He did, but...
Oh, I'm in trouble...
See? See?
Look me in the eye!
Eye?
Yes!
My grandma used to say,
Whether it's good or bad, whether you lie or not, you can tell by looking in the eye!
Eye?
I'm a line!
Hey, I'll show you something good!
Come with me!
Hey!
Okay, let's go!
Kuwaiba!
Believe in me!
This is a secret place!
Come on!
If you can see the cherry blossoms in Nakanocho Street well,
I love looking at it from here!
It's so beautiful!
Those cherry blossoms are only planted in spring, and when they're over, they're pulled back.
Is that so?
Yeah! It's hard to find cherry blossoms that don't wither and bloom beautifully!
That's why it's amazing that Yoshiwara's cherry tree craftsmen chose me!
You're fast, but you're the best in Uekichi's mansion!
But if they all wither and disappear at once, it's lonely!
Yeah, that won't happen. There's a plan!
Do you know what it is?
I don't know.
Why not? It's not a big deal for a school student!
I mean, I don't study Yoshiwara's cherry blossoms at school!
Cherry blossoms in early spring and cherry blossoms in late autumn are planted in the jungle!
The earliest cherry blossoms are sunflowers!
Oh, that's right!
It's full bloom now!
And then there's cherry blossoms in late fall, cherry blossoms in early spring, and cherry blossoms in late autumn.
And by the time cherry blossoms in late autumn bloom, Yoshiwara's cherry season is over.
And then there's cherry blossoms in early autumn!
Cherry blossoms have the strongest scent!
That's why!
It smells so good!
I can't help it even if you're smirking!
I've been sold for sure, haven't I?
There's no food for a man who can't eat five or six hundred kinds of food!
Uekichi told his boss that he bought it so cheaply that he'd laugh at him!
That's terrible!
But thanks to him, I met you!
I'm!
I want to be a top-class fraudster like you!
Wa-ha-ha!
What?
Laugh! You too!
Wa-ha-ha!
You should laugh when you're angry!
Why?
If you laugh, you can forget about being angry and be happy!
You'll get fat and ugly and everyone will bully you!
Right? Laugh!
Wa-ha-ha!
Get up!
Wa-ha-ha!
Laugh more! Laugh more!
Wa-ha-ha!
Wa-ha-ha! Wa-ha-ha!
What a ridiculous way of laughing!
I imitated you!
You're a man when you're laughing!
You laugh for yourself, not for anyone else!
For myself?
That's right! You should laugh for yourself!
You have to laugh!
Ha-ha-ha!
You're a man when you're laughing!
Oh no! I have to go!
But...
It's okay! I'm not afraid of laughing!
Hey!
Senta-san!
What is it? A book again?
This is a book written by my heroine.
Shioko Shou?
Shou Koujou. It's interesting.
Senta-san, do you want to read it?
Huh?
You know, there are a lot of things that women read.
That's not it! I can't read.
Don't be so surprised! There are a lot of people like that!
Well, even if you don't know it, it doesn't matter!
I'll tell you!
Huh?
Thanks for telling me without laughing!
Oh!
This is the kanji for "cherry blossoms"!
Senta-san, you have to remember this!
Cherry blossoms...
First...
Short, sideways. Vertically, long.
Next to it...
This is the kanji for "tree".
Tree?
Next to it...
Three little hands.
Underneath it...
Sideways!
This is the kanji for "woman"!
Oh! Woman!
Next to the tree...
A woman standing with her hair decorated!
That's a cherry blossom!
Right?
If you remember it like this, it's easy, right?
One more time!
Short, sideways. Vertically, long.
Next to it...
Ta-da!
What is it?
I can't do it!
Senta-san!
What is it?
If you remember the kanji, you'll be able to read books about cherry blossoms!
Eh?
I'm sure there are things you don't know about them!
Eh?
If you gain new knowledge, Senta-san's world of cherry blossoms will expand!
Eh?!
You should learn for your own sake!
You have to learn!
This is bad! I can't even say a word!
You! Are you going to laugh in front of everyone?
What?
Then you won't be bullied!
But you're making me feel bad.
You're weird as always!
I'll do it! As a reward for laughing!
Kanzashi? Cherry blossoms?
Did you make it, Santa?
No way!
You're good at it! It's so cute!
And it smells so good!
I made it with cherry blossoms!
I'm so happy!
Put it on for me!
Why don't we go to a cherry blossom festival tomorrow night?
Huh?
It's the first time I've been commissioned to take care of cherry blossoms!
It's beautiful, so I want you to see it!
Of course I'll go!
Yes!
But when can we go out?
Whenever you want!
I'm going to relax after the service!
Oh, no! I have to go!
What's wrong with you?
Bye!
Santa!
Yeah?
Thank you so much for the cherry blossoms, Kanzashi!
I'll treasure them!
I'll protect them!
You always smile like that!
For you, Santa, I'll always smile!
Then I'll always...
I'll always protect you!
I can't get out! I can't get out! Masa-chan! Masa- chan!
Your father is here.
You came to pick me up, didn't you? Which way are you going?
Unfortunately, he's gone home. I have to return the money I lent you.
What?
Sit there.
Masako, you're Hojiro's daughter from now on.
Daughter?
Your father sold you to us.
That's a lie.
That's a lie!
It's true.
Poor thing.
My father...
My kind father would never sell me!
That's a mistake!
Waste.
A signature?
It's official.
It's my father's seal and signature.
What do you think?
It's true, isn't it?
Let me go!
Hey, be careful!
It's an important item!
I'm not an item!
You have two sisters, don't you?
If you're smart, you'd know.
A father like you doesn't know how to work.
The money you sell will soon be gone.
Sir, you may have a younger sister now.
But if you work and raise your family, everything will be fine.
- How much is it? - It's only sixteen yen.
That's just right.
We have etiquette and education, so you can pay us anytime you like.
Then let's do it tomorrow.
Tomorrow?
You don't have to worry about raising the price of water. We've already decided who you're going to pay.
Who are you going to pay?
Mr. Ichioka.
You've been paying attention to me for a while now.
I've already received the advance payment.
- Bring it here. - Yes, sir.
Now then...
I have to decide on a name.
It's a little like Miyabi's house from back in the day.
He's finally working for us.
By the way, Masako's horse is called Miyabi.
It's my first time seeing it at night cherry blossoms.
How about Sakura-ni-Miyabi-de-Oga?
What a nice name!
All right, I've decided.
From now on you're Hojiro's oga.
Work hard.
You have a nose.
You'll be a good oira.
- Shall we call it a day? - Yes.
Let me show this girl's hair for the first time.
Yes.
Let me choose my kimono.
How cute this girl is.
It can't be helped if it's fate, I have no choice but to accept it, right?
Good, good! It's blooming beautifully!
Yeah, it's beautiful!
Hey, you over there, do your best and bloom bigger!
It's okay! You're a strong tree!
Yeah, the sunflowers are blooming beautifully too!
Good!
Oh, I hope Masa-chan isn't here yet.
It can't be helped. I guess I'll head over to Kojiro's.
Short and sideways, vertically and lengthwise,
dot dot, three dots,
bend and bend sideways.
There's a woman standing next to a tree.
What's with you?
Hey, doesn't that mean "cherry blossoms"?
Huh? Yeah, that's right.
All right, I remember.
I remember my cherry blossoms.
All right!
This is "oh".
Huh?
"Cherry blossoms" and "cherry blossoms" are called "oh".
"Cherry blossoms" are "oh"?
Yeah.
Why is that?
Uh...
Well, that's how it is.
What do you mean, "that's how it is"?
Hey, enough! Get out of my way!
This is my first store opening!
Whose?
You'll know once you hear it.
Enough! Get out of my way!
Ladies and gentlemen, this is our first store opening, Mr. Ogre, a young lady from France, whose skin is as delicate and soft as a cherry blossom and melts in your mouth.
This is our first store opening, Mr. Ogre.
It's my first time here, too.
Mr. Ogre, I've been expecting you.
You've given me a good name, Mr. Ogre.
Thank you very much.
Please enjoy both Hojiro's first cherry blossom and Yoshiwara's second cherry blossom.
Yes, sir.
Mr. Ogre, this is our first store opening!
You're kidding me, Masa-chan.
First of all, we have prepared a special room for you.
Masa-chan!
Senta-san!
Masa...
Masa-chan! Don't go! Don't go!
What's wrong with you? Be quiet and go home!
Masa-chan! Don't go!
That's enough!
Senta-san! Stop it!
Masa-chan! Senta-san!
[Senta-san, thank you for your hard work. I hope you'll continue to work hard in the future as well.]
[Laugh now. Come on, laugh. A young woman's smiling face is appealing. Laugh now.]
What a pain in the ass.
*weird noises*
*konchiwa konchiwa konkon chiki*
*furaete kita no wa yoshimara no mojuro to iwasare*
*furaete kita no mojuro to iwasare*
I'm sure she'll be a good wife.
It's getting crowded in the middle of the night
I'll go there tomorrow
Tomorrow, my body will change
Oh, flowers, flowers, flowers, flowers
I'll go there tomorrow
Tomorrow, my body will change
Oh, flowers, flowers, flowers, flowers
I'll go there tomorrow
Tomorrow, my body will change
Oh, flowers, flowers, flowers, flowers
Tomorrow, my body will change
(laughs)
Interesting.
Was it really written by him?
I read your letter.
Your output surprised me.
I am surprised. You should be a writer. No, you are already a great writer.
I am now deeply disappointed in you.
I am disappointed in the way you live.
My life is worthless.
Compared to the time you've spent, it's worse.
No, it's worse than worse!
I know why you don't laugh.
You don't laugh for Santa.
You can't laugh.
But will that be of any use to Santa?
If you could bring a smile from your heart,
wouldn't Santa be happy for you?
Your smile...
Santa is happy for you, isn't he?
Most of all, you must be happy!
You absolutely must!
This is a request I have for you.
I want you to accept it!
I, who have the same eyes as Santa you have,
have the right to send you this request!
A request...
Sister, Master Saijo is here.
You're early.
When I said you were in the book room, Aoi-chan said to Master Saijo...
Take me to Udengo-tebe.
Isn't that too sweet of you, Odango-e?
Is that so?
Ah, Midori-neesan, you said you didn't like high school girls.
I don't like girls like Sarah.
Maybe you do!
That's just a story! Komari-chan only dreams about...
It doesn't matter if you dream about it.
It doesn't matter.
As long as you dream about it.
Ah, I'm sorry about this.
The government told me to send you a big Aoi-ran.
But that's still Master Saijo's sister!
No matter what I say, I can't go back until I meet her.
But, you know, Master Saijo...
He couldn't help himself because he didn't want to be stared at.
Uncle, Master Saijo is already here.
You just talked to Aoi-san, didn't you?
Yes.
Since it's our first meeting, please let me use your dining room.
When Master Saijo returns, we'll have a good talk.
I'm counting on you for the dinner.
If you could at least show me your face...
I understand.
Ah, thank goodness!
I have to get my hair done by Yohei. I'm going back to my room.
He's not back yet, Yohei.
What is he doing today?
My hair won't look good like this!
I thought you'd say that.
I told Kikushiro Aoi-ran's hairdresser about it.
Okay, that's enough!
I can't believe it!
I don't know what I'm saying!
Midori-chan...
Yes!
When Yohei returns, please give me this letter.
Make it quick, okay?
If you say it's from me, I'll know.
Okay!
But you know what?
Don't tell anyone about it!
I definitely won't let anyone else see it!
Make sure you give it to Yohei!
Got it?
Yes!
Good game!
I'm counting on you.
Onee-chan's smell!
Saijo-sama told me to call Oga-neesan and...
Where is she?
She went to work.
It's still closed.
She said she needed a helper.
Midori-chan, who sent you that letter?
Yo-neesan.
Onee-san's smell of penis...
Aoi-chan, give it back!
Oga-neesan gave it to Yo-neesan!
She said she'd keep it a secret!
That's suspicious!
What is?
If it's Yo-neesan's letter, it can't be a secret!
Then it's Saijo-sama's, right?
If it's Saijo-sama's, I'll give it to a man!
This might be a letter for my mother.
Aoi-chan, don't say stupid things like that!
Midori-chan, you're still a child, so you don't know.
Yo-neesan said he wanted to ask you about the meal.
But Saijo-sama has just returned.
What should we do?
Oga-san!
If it's Saijo-sama's partner, we can have a match!
I want to bring them along!
But you're alone!
Saijo-sama and I will get along, right?
Then I'm counting on you!
I'll take Oga-san out later.
Come on, come on, come on!
Hey!
Let me kiss you!
Come on, come on, come on!
Oh, I don't like it!
As expected of you!
You attacked me in front of Awayamote!
How many decades has it been?
Who did you write it for, sister?
Hey!
Ah!
Why are you surprised like that?
Where is Ogawa?
Huh?
Oh, well...
You are...
Um...
I have a bad stomach and can't eat...
Hey!
You don't have to lie.
I'm sure you've all heard about it from Atobri...
Who is your opponent?
You said you'd help me...
But you refused...
I see...
Then it can't be helped.
Why are you hiding it?
Don't tell me you like it?
I see...
I thought you were really interested in this place...
What a shame!
I thought you'd get used to it eventually...
You want me to get used to it?
But you don't have an opponent anymore...
Is this a letter for me?
It's not yours.
Then whose is it?
It's Ms. Oga's letter.
Oga's?
You're not supposed to...
If it were me, I wouldn't do it. So, Saijo-sama...
Did you read this letter?
This is a letter from Oga to me.
Huh? But you're always so manly...
It's a game. It's fun to secretly play with you.
You just broke Yoshiwara's law.
You told Moedan that it was a secret...
and even tried to steal her friend.
But that's...
If I found out, you'd be driven out of here...
and you'd sell yourself while smelling the stinky smell of ohaguro-dobu.
That... that punishment... punishment...
punishment...
Don't worry. I won't tell anyone about it.
Chief...
Tell Oga that you gave the letter to Yohei.
Mitori and Komari know about it too.
We don't know where the rumors are coming from.
Thank you, Chief!
Now, go back to your room.
It's true that you have a right.
Because you read my long, long letter.
Long, long letter?
If I could see you wanting and smiling from the bottom of my heart...
Yes, I'm sure he'd be happy.
But...
Can I smile?
I want to make him happy.
I want you to be happy too.
But...
Is it okay?
You have eyes as pure and clean as his.
And his soul has eyes like yours.
I don't know which one of you wrote me back.
But I think Masako should receive your letter of request.
If Masako is still in my heart...
I'll turn 60 in six months.
Could you wait for me?
If you wait for me...
I'm sure Masako will smile.
As you requested.
And be happy.
As you requested.
Please wait for my reply.
I'm sure of it.
What's this?
Who wrote it?
Oh, Chief!
Oh, you're alone.
Where's the chief?
Bring me a turtle named Yohei.
Oh, Yohei?
He's not here yet.
What is it, Yohei?
While I'm acting, is there anyone else...
who met Ogre other than you?
Chief, you're asking too much about Ogre.
I'm asking you if there's anyone else who met Ogre.
No, there isn't.
Really?
Yes, of course.
Bring me a man.
One with a hard mouth.
A faint one.
You have eyes as pure and unspoiled as that man's, my dear.
Yes, sir.
Bring Yohei of Kamiui to the white house so that no one knows of him.
But don't make a fuss. I don't want to make a scene. I'll wait for you in the white house.
Wait. I'll make a few moves, too.
Yohei!
Who's Yohei?
Well, it doesn't matter. I think we can get a newspaper serialization.
If the person in charge, Mr. Tamura, can't do anything about it and gets fired,
we'll make you do it!
In other words, the theme is Hiren!
It's no big deal, Azuma Shibun! We want you to be popular!
Hiren...
First of all, we need a notice.
A notice?
The wind has been blowing here since next month!
There's no time for that next month!
So! You're under arrest now!
I'll be your editor-in-chief and work with you!
I won't take a step from here until I get a notice!
I'll be right back!
Hey! What are you talking about?
There's something I really want you to know!
A woman?
Something like that!
Hey! Don't be cute!
Well, I'm glad you pushed me for that one, too!
Let's see...
I pity you. You are so wonderful, but please have confidence in yourself.
This is the power of that picture, isn't it?
I will risk my life to save you from sadness.
What do you want me to do with my life?
I'm requesting you, Sensei Kirino.
We will protect you.
You...
Hey! This is Saijo-san!
I'm Kataoka. I'm the editor of "Azuma Shimbun".
Kataoka-san!
Yes.
I'm here to congratulate you.
Congratulate me?
For Sensei Kirino.
I heard about "Azuma Shimbun" from you.
That's fast!
But, Sensei...
Here you are.
I was going to lock you up, but you went to a woman.
Are you rich?
No, I'm not. I don't have money.
I guess it's cheap around here.
This is my love letter for you.
I keep receiving letters from you.
Dear Sensei Kirino, I can save you.
What is this?
Let me congratulate you.
This is too much.
This is not enough for me.
This is for you and for Kataoka-san, the editor of "Binwan".
I didn't do anything.
I'm sorry, but I'm a little hungry.
It might take some time.
I'd like to take a break.
Take a break...
I'll go and take a break.
Thank you.
(coughing)
I'm in trouble. I caught a cold for a moment.
But I'm glad you're conscious now.
I can go and get a doctor now.
No, you can't. I have to go to my place now.
You can't go now!
But you came here because you couldn't wait for my answer, didn't you?
I'll be waiting for you for a long time.
(coughing)
Doctor, my heart is always dancing.
It's the first time for her to be like that.
When I was alive, I had a daughter about the same age as me.
She died of pneumonia with her mother.
So I want her to be happy.
It's a cliché, but it's difficult for me.
But now I know.
You treat me like a normal girl.
And I'm happy about it.
I'm happy about it, so of course I'm happy about it.
But no matter what you say, it won't change my heart.
Doctor, I'm begging you.
Yes.
Mr. Yohei, hang in there! Mr. Yohei! I'll call a doctor!
Why, Ogre?
Why didn't you tell me anything?
I'm the only one who has the right to make you happy and smile, right?
I'm the only one, aren't I?
But why?
Why did you do everything to a man you've only met once?
Ogre!
Have you forgotten?
Don't mess with me!
You're just like him!
Is that all you've got?!
Ogre!
There's no way we can live like this!
I'm sorry, I'm late.
Wow, it's raining so hard!
I'm sorry I'm late!
Well, I'll have a drink first.
Thank you for waiting. Here you go.
Oh, no! An important guest and an important promise!
Ouch!
I don't know what it means to be rich.
A post office is like a hospital. If you do bad things, you'll get punished.
I see. I understand.
Ms. Kirino!
Are you surprised? It's been a while.
Mr. Saizo, thank you for your help back then.
Oops, you'll get wet. Come on in.
No, my room is right over there.
In that room, I was waiting for you to come back.
What?
Oh, by the way, come on in.
I'm sorry.
I heard about your newspaper serialization from Mr. Mori and came to congratulate you.
It's not decided yet.
I'm telling you the truth.
The truth?
In fact, I was wondering if you had received a letter from Oga in your room.
Oh, I'm sorry for the suddenness of events.
Oga told me that you had written about Ms. Senta to Ms. Kirino.
I was embarrassed and came to confirm it.
Oh, of course, if you hadn't received it, then...
Mr. Saizo, do you know about Ms. Senta?
No, I don't know about the letter!
She said it was a secret and she had never told anyone about it!
Mr. Saizo...
Oga and I have known each other for a long time.
Oga's secret is also my secret.
But it was true.
What?
I thought Oga had seen it in a dream.
Mr. Saizo and Oga only met once in the middle of the road.
But could it be...
Could it be your eyes?
What?
Mr. Saizo's eyes look like Ms. Senta's.
My eyes look like yours?
Yes.
Could you tell us about Ms. Senta?
The secret between the three of us.
Yes.
Professor, have you ever heard of it?
Of what?
A writer telling his life story as a work of art.
No, I haven't.
No, I have.
While knowing you were a writer, Ogar wrote that story.
It's not that you're unconsciously wishing for me to write a story about Santa for you.
That's not possible!
No!
I want to leave a proof of a young man's life, Santa, who was killed by Muzan.
Oh, now that you mention it, you're right!
If... if you were to tell me that story as a work of art, it would be yours, wouldn't it?
It would be mine.
In that case, wouldn't Ogar be released?
From what?
From Santa! From his past with Santa!
That's it! Release from his past!
Ah, release, professor!
If you're released from your past and free, Ogar will end for sure!
And you'll be happy!
Don't you think so?
Release?
Professor... Professor Kirino...
Please!
Write a story about Santa for me!
Mr. Saijo...
Please...
Mr. Saijo!
Please...
Please let me go home...
Please...
Ha ha ha...
Amazing...
I'm...
I'm such a...
I'm such a great actor!
But I'm tired.
Thank you for watching.
I think I drank a lot.
It feels like someone is moving the room.
Oh, you're late.
Mr. Saijo was waiting for you for a while to celebrate the news series.
I got you this. You should do it, too.
Did Joro beat you up?
From a woman.
A woman sent me a long letter.
What about it?
It said it was a secret between me and her.
But it wasn't!
Other men knew about it, too.
That happens all the time.
And someone said...
...that writing about your life to a writer...
...means you want him to make it into a work of art.
I'm sorry!
You'll know when you grow up.
You'll find out about me and my life.
But...
...if you tell me it's a secret...
I want you to write about it!
But...
...you should write a notice!
Do your best!
What's wrong?
To be honest...
...I don't know.
What?
To be honest...
...I don't know anymore.
You want me to write about a woman?
That's perfect!
Write about her!
Write about me right now!
Spit it out!
Make it into words!
That's what it means to be a writer!
Hey, Kirino, what do you write for?
For what?
For money? For fame? Or for that woman?
That's...
Listen up!
Write for the most important thing in your life.
And for that, you can do anything!
Get dirty, rot, die!
What's important is your desire!
What you want to write, for whom you want to write it, what you want to get is your desire!
A fierce desire!
Desire! Desire! Desire!
Do you understand?
All right! I'll do it! I'll call Mr. Mori!
Desire… my desire…
A secret… do you believe it?
Which do you believe in?
Even if it's only once, we can understand each other.
Even if it's only once, what is it?
No!
This secret… that person's secret…
But I told it to other men, too!
No, but it doesn't matter.
The problem is whether that person wants it or not!
Whether they want freedom and liberation or not!
Think about it, Kirino.
Not in your head, but in your own head!
The moment this secret reached me,
a big carrot called "newspaper serialization" was hanging from my nose!
And it wanted the secret!
What is this coincidence?
Did that person bring it to me?
Then that person is my goddess!
Muse!
No, wait, don't hurry!
Think about it! Think about it!
What if I don't write about it?
Miss out on serialization and make everyone love me?
If I'm as popular as a picture, I'll disappear right away!
I'll miss out on an opportunity to come out as a writer!
If that happens, I can't save that person!
That person is Yoshiora Ichino's choice!
She's a rich woman!
Am I, who has no money, only allowed to be seen by women?
I don't want that! I absolutely don't want that!
I must be the first one to see that person's movie!
I absolutely don't want to give up such honor!
I don't want that!
No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No! No
I rot and become dirty, but I leave this world to go and meet you.
This is my desire! Desire! Desire! Desire!
You, who became a sacrifice of the Meiji era and a sacrifice of your family, fell from a height to the bottom of the earth.
You are a part of Japan!
This is what I want to write most right now!
I will create a new form of Japanese liberal arts literature!
Ah, Masako... Masa-chan...
I am grateful to you!
I will face your writing firmly and create works that will not lose to your output as a single ray of sunshine!
And after I finish writing my letters, I will go and meet you first!
I will go and receive your criticism!
If you like me, I will soar to the sky!
And at that moment, I hope...
I desperately hope!
Your smile... Yes...
Show me your smile!
(school bell rings)
Come in, Mori-san.
Kirino, how did it go?
Kirino?
Hey! Wake up!
Is there anyone sleeping?
Hey!
Whoa! He's got a pen in his mouth!
Something's written on it.
Huh?
HANAKANZASHI
A woman told me this story.
She's beautiful.
Not only beautiful, but also ugly.
But she doesn't laugh. She's not happy.
Is this Oga Oiran?
Oga-kun, you weren't mad at me, were you?
Mr. Mori, then...
You can go now. All you have to do is plan for next year.
Yes, sir!
Thank you very much, Kirito!
Kirito...
What is it, Masako?
I've been waiting for your letter!
My letter?
Your reply... It never comes!
I've been writing it all this time!
I want to read it now!
Please! Hurry!
Kirito...
A dream...
Good morning, sister!
What's wrong? Are you crying, sister?
I hope you can be with the one you love.
I hope you can be happy.
I'll pray for you all the time.
Oh, no! Oh, no!
Trouble?
This morning, "Azuma Shimbun" reported about a new serialization.
The author is a man named Ichiro Kirino, who interfered with "Oiran Dochi".
No matter how you read it, it's about a center.
Oh, my God! Who told you about it?
What are you up to?
Who are you?
Let me go!
I won't let you do this!
It's not a lie!
The author approached me because he wanted a story!
If you look at the newspaper, you can see it!
And yet, it was easily deceived like this!
You have been deceived by a man named Kirino, a man who is also Houjirou's son.
Hahahahaha!
Sister! Hahahahaha!
Mr. Masako, I'm going to see you!
She...
She smiled!
Sakura... Sakura is...
Masako!
It's me, Kino!
I've come for you!
Masako! Masa-chan!
Come out! Show yourself!
Are you Mr. Hirino?
Where is he?
Today, Ogre accepted you as his wife.
For Ogre's price, such a thing...
It's not something you can easily do!
Oh my, oh my, Mr. Kino!
It's been a while!
Mr. Saito!
Let me talk to you for a moment.
I can't believe you're here today!
As I thought, you and Ogre...
Perhaps they were bound by the thread of fate...
It's a rather weak thread, but...
You're looking for him?
I was going to bring him back earlier, but...
It took me some time to prepare.
Prepare? What do you mean?
Yes! Ogre is here!
Your novel was too stimulating. Ogre did it again all of a sudden. This time it will be in small pieces.
Why?
Didn't you make him mad?
Me?
He wrote down all the secrets only you could tell him.
You know about it, too, don't you, Mr. Saito?
No, I only read Ogre's letter in your room that day.
Ogre didn't tell me anything at all.
Did you deceive me?
You told me to set you free and set you free!
I was set free, Ogre! In a sense, I was free!
No! I didn't want this!
Miss! Miss!
I only sowed the seeds.
You raised me.
You wanted to write, you wanted to write, you wanted to write, you wanted to write a great novel!
I wanted to write it, and I wrote it.
What have I done?
Masako, please come back!
Masako, it's me, Kirino!
Kirino?
You're hurt. You're hurt. You're hurt, Santa.
I'm sorry. I... I scratched you.
Fingertips perfect.
If you lie, I'll lick you a thousand times.
Yes, Ms. Masako.
Ms. Kirino?
I'm so glad you came back.
Ms. Kirino!
Yes, I'm so glad you came back.
Ms. Senta, why did you do that?
It's... my... fault...
I'm... wrong...
I'm...
Kirino!
Who did it?
Tell me! Who did it?
Oga, it's you.
Me?
You did it.
Why me?
Because you betrayed me.
Betrayed you?
That man betrayed you.
Come, Ogre, come here.
I stabbed Kirino.
Come here.
I stabbed her.
Come back!
No, not this thread!
No, not these eyes!
No, not this thread!
Mr. Kirino...
Kirino...
My eyes...
...are rotting.
Konchiwa, konchiwa, konkonchiki (Hello, hello, konkonchiki)
I have been sold by Yoshiwara's Hojuro.
The song "shiranu, shiranu" is a lie.
This body sold for money is my destiny.
Ah, cherry blossoms are in full bloom. Enjoy yourself.
Konchiwa, konchiwa, konkonchiki (Hello, hello, konkonchiki)
No one knows my name.
Shirandu-kyu is lively.
Tanoshi, tanoshi, to waraesen (Fun, fun, laughing line)
Nushi, to sowareru konomi ga (My body is being combed)
Ah, nare, ah (Ah, nare, ah)
gonkiwa gonkiwa gonkiwa (gonkiwa gonkiwa gonkiwa)
(kuroshi kurushi to utawasharu)
(usotsukimashou ni da)
(kanashii asa ga)
(ga mau you ni)
(otanoshii)
(sore kara)
(kanga)
This is the end.
The end?
I wrote it all.
Yes.
My... our story.
That's right.
Yes, your smile.
I won't let you go.

Is it really here?
I'm sure of it!
Grandma! I'm here to thank you!
Why me, too?
Because it's proof!
Look! The sea of Tenderi! I knew it was here!
It's packed!
Can I do whatever I want?
Sure.
sakura fumi - even if our bodies wither and wither away, our souls will forever be recorded here as words and letters.
Noisy, noisy. Glittery, glittery.
Bored, bored.
Glittery, glittery.
Ah!
Please let me tell you…
Mr. Iwasaki, do you love me?
Yes.
Really?
Yes.
You'll love me forever?
Yes!
I'm happy!
I...
What are you going to do with it?
I want you to read it to me.
Let's go!
Ah!
What?
The scent of cherry blossoms!
Let's go!
Ah!
What?
The scent of cherry blossoms!
